Hi, new SXU user here. Just noticed that letter Q on my keypad is not working when its in portrait mode. But its ok when my phone is in landscape mode. Tried flashing stock ics rom already but that didn't solve the problem. Is it a hardware problem already?
i dont think is a hardware problem because it is working in normal mode so you have a soft problem go with our phone tu a repair
already tried that but it didn't worked too, even flashing with custom roms didn't help :crying:

dial *#*#7378423#*#*
go to service tests
go to touchscreen
now draw anything and notice whether the area where q is present is still black or it has some lines on it

did that aready and i noticed that i can't draw anylines on the letter where q is located on portrait mode. is that a hardware problem already?
i think is hardware problem
so the only solution for that is by replacing the lcd already? :crying:
Yup you are gonna have to replace the digitizer But dont worry, hardware damage like this is covered under warranty
thanks sir Min3r
by the way, i'm currently using your rom. and i think it is the best rom so far :good:

Hello all,
I have a Sony Live Walkman WT19i currently on Gingerbread.
Randomly, when I'm making a call, the speakerphone gets activated... or sometimes it's the dialpad and then I hear my face touching numbers!
Is the proximity sensor not working properly on my phone, or is this a common bug?
Don't know if this happened while my phone had the original firmware WT19a - now it WT19i , it was the only way to root it.
Any feedback to repair this, avoid it or something?
i never had such proximity sensor problem.
eventough i flashed it many times.
repair using pc companion or claim for warranty.

Tried repairing with PC Companion, but it stops in the middle saying it can't continue.
Googled the cause that PC companion could do that, and there are many many reason... tried a lot of "fixes" to be able for it to do "the repair" (wich I heard fixed this issue for some guy) and had success with none of them.
well, if your phone still ''virgin'', then claim it to service center for warranty repair.

That's the other problem. My phone is far from "virgin" now.
I'll see what can I do.

whoops... what have you done to it so far?? maybe you can try a different kernel or flashing a ftf of another version of firmware to see what happens.
Edit: just remembered something useful, go to the phone app and enter *#*#7378423#*#* this will take you to the service menu, select service tests and then proximity switch so it will tell you if it's working or not.

As far as to have installed just now ICS and rooted it. Bootloader is still locked, but won't be for so long hehe.

Tested it. It works, but it is *very* sensitive. If I move a little the phone within my ear, it will sense off. So I'll have to try to have it very still everytime I make call (I DO switch my phone a lot with my hand when talking).
Thanks a lot for your help. I see you're from Mexico? We could be having this conversation so much easier, ha!

Hello,
How did you adjust it? I can't find any option of configuration for that setting. Could you share how you could fix it?
Or maybe you meant it fixed with the custom ROM.. could be. I hope it's not a bug but shouldn't be fixed now that I upgraded to Ice Cream Sandwich? I wouldn't want to use a custom ROM
By the way, wich ROM do you use?
THANKS FOR YOUR INFO!

I guess by your signature, the custom Rom that helped you is: miniCMSandwich
Am I correct? If so, I might try it. Please let me know.

u r welcome!!
Know what i just found this.
Very interesting it seems it may actually be a hw related issue and maybe you will need to take it back. Still i am searching for another way to fix it if you don't want to.
how many cm needs proximity sensor to say that it works ok??
For me it about 1,5 cm and i often touch my screen when calling :/
Is there any SW solution? I'm using hybrom v16 custom rom now.

I'd like to advice don't flash that. in most cases you'll brick your device.

You'd need a dev to figure that out, probably a kernel issue. Try getting one of the devs for your device to make a port of it.

ok so how do i do this? dev does that involve programming
the acho.com website has ICS for C905 now.
@technobucks yea i know but they have serial numbers for it and mine is not in the range given so the touch wouldnt work thats why im trying different methods
wow...you're so lucky that only the touch screen inverted. in most case your device won't boot up if the hardware configuration is too different.

I'll agree with technobucks's advice. even if they have different serial numbers, if the model and the hardware is same you won't get any significant trouble. the succes possibility is a lot higher than trying to port a rom from another device.
yea i tired the one that was made for the device serial to my device and the touch screen doesnt work at all not even inverted so is there anyway to fix
Ps i just flashed back to 2.3

How do you the like the Acho C905? I saw it in a shop and was wondering how the general performance is like. I don't know anyone who has it and so would really appreciate your opinion on the device
Hi guys.
I know, I'm a noob. I already tried to find something about my problem but I couldn't find nothing.
I would know if it is a hardware or software problem because if it is a hardware problem and I can't solve I send my phone to the warranty, but maybe I can solve this problem with the help of someone.
The problem is the camera focus: it doesn't work.
I have attached some photos that I have took some minutes ago.
Android's version is 4.0.3 but I think that isn't a firmware problem because I had before cyanogen nightly builds and I had the same problem. The phone didn't fall to the ground.
Sorry for my bad english and thanks of all.

I have flashed the kernel Siyah just now but nothing, the problem there is still present.
I don't understand if the focus is hardware or software.
Is there something that I can do? Am I alone with this problem? Is very strange.
EDIT: when I had cyanogenmod 9+syiah on my phone I already had this problem, I forgot when it appened first time.
Autofocus -> hardware.
Its the kernel
hi, same here.
solved the issue using sylah 3.3.3 old kernel.
I suppose it's related to the newest kernels + 4.04.
using the old one seem to solve the issue .
now I reverted back to 4.03 until someone solve this. dream kernel states they did but doesn't seem to work.

I found a guy with the same problem. He said me that probably is the "mini-engine" of the focus that doesn't work.
Now my question is: how long could samsung assistance be to fix it? One month?
Because I am seriously thinking to buy the back camera and fix it myself.
Inviato dal mio GT-I9100 con Tapatalk 2
Im not sure if you can find one as they are scarce.A guy on here said he seen them for $120.I only saw one supplier selling for around $60,but they had no stock.
If you send your phone to Samsung it would have to be running stock firmware and they could have it for 1-10 weeks.
I have a spare camera here.I want to keep it,but if you are desperate I could sell it to you......

Really do you have one?
I ma interested but depends by the cost. I found one, new, for about 40€.
If you can get a new one for that price then buy it.You could email Samsung and ask what theyd charge to do the job so you get an accurate price.

They won't claim it! my warranty has expired! and they are charging too much and taking 10-15 working days for the fix! well i well touch the local market for the fix! Let see what they say and suggest me! thanks for the fast reply and suggestion! :good:
I am having the same problem and I had my digitizer changed from the local market a couple of weeks back. Did you find any solution?
Hey guys, my Vince display broked and I change this for one that I buy on Gearbest, the quality is nice, same original, but a lot of ROMs doesnt work on this, the touch stop and a padlock appears on left side, this is a driver problem ? Has a solution for It ?
EDIT: The new display is a different version of novatek, i found a dev that make a functional kernel for this !!
?? I have a new screen for replacing my broken one that still works but after knowing that I'm going to wait a bit longer lol
